<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe Webkul Product Subscription App enables businesses to offer recurring subscriptions for products or services, with flexible delivery options and features for managing subscriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Such as payment retries and email customizations. It integrates with Shopify to accommodate various business needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nBox Order and Subscription Box Feature<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
A new and powerful feature has been introduced in the app \u2014 Box Order<\/strong> and Subscription Box<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This functionality allows merchants to create pre-defined product boxes and offer them directly to customers, either as a one-time purchase or as a recurring subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Box Order<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Box Order<\/strong> feature enables the merchant to create a ready-made box containing multiple products and offer it as a single purchasable item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This allows customers to buy a complete curated set of products at once without having to add each product individually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Subscription Box<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Subscription Box<\/strong> feature works on a recurring model, allowing customers to subscribe to these boxes for a specific duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Merchants can set up subscription plans, define time periods, and choose the type of boxes they want to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are three types of subscription boxes available:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Standard Box<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
In a Standard Box, the merchant fixes the products, and the customer cannot change them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"stsndrd\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/stndrdadd-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n![\"s\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/stndrdbox.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Each delivery contains the same set of products defined by the merchant at the time of box creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Custom Box<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A Custom Box lets the merchant add multiple products and set a minimum number of items that customers must select for the subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Customers can then choose their preferred products from the available list and subscribe accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"cc\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/cstmadd-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nExample:<\/strong>
If a box contains 10 products and the merchant sets the minimum required quantity as 5, the customer can select any 5 products of their choice to create their own subscription box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"cs\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/custombox.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong>
Once the subscription starts, before the next delivery date, either the customer or the admin can re-customize<\/strong> the box if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"boxbuyer\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/custombuyerend-1-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n3. Surprise Box<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The Surprise Box<\/strong> is designed to offer a fun and engaging experience.
Products in this box are selected randomly, creating a mystery or gifting element for the customer.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"sr\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/srpriseadd-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEach box includes a short hint-based description that gives a slight idea about the theme or nature of the products, but the actual items remain a surprise until delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"sress\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/surprisebox.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nRewards or surprise items are always picked randomly from the set of products added by the merchant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Option to Add a New Plan While Creating a Box<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhile creating a box, if the merchant wants to add a new subscription plan that is not already available among the existing options, they can easily do so directly from the same interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simply type any plan name of your choice in the plan field \u2014 once entered, a new \u201cAdd Plan\u201d<\/strong> button will appear automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"add\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/addplann-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
By clicking this button, the merchant can create a completely new plan and define its duration or time period as per their preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Updates on the Buyer End<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
On the buyer\u2019s profile page, under the Subscriptions<\/strong> section, two new tabs have been introduced to provide better clarity and organization of box-related orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"ff\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/buyerendff-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n1. Box Orders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This section displays all the boxes purchased by customers \u2014 whether through a one-time purchase<\/strong> or an active subscription<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\nIt helps buyers easily track all their box orders in one place, regardless of the purchase type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"uyerbox\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/buyerboxorder-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n2. Subscriptions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This section lists all the subscribed box orders<\/strong> that are part of an active subscription plan. Customers can view details of their ongoing subscriptions and manage them directly from here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"subs\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/buyerendsub-1200x606.webp\")

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nNew Options in General Configuration<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nTwo new configuration settings have been added under the General Configuration<\/strong> section to provide better control over how subscriptions behave when sub-products are unavailable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n1. Standard Box Subscription<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Enable this option to automatically cancel existing subscriptions linked to a box product if any of its sub-products go out of stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"sttb\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gnrlf-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong> By default, the subscription will continue even if a sub-product is unavailable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n2. Custom Box Subscription<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Enable this option to automatically cancel existing subscriptions associated with a box product if any sub-product goes out of stock or is removed from the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"sscs\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gnrls-1200x606.webp\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong> By default, the subscription will be put on hold<\/strong> in such cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNew Mail Configurations Added<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Several new mail configurations have been introduced to enhance communication between the store and customers regarding Box Orders<\/strong> and Subscription Boxes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These automated mails ensure customers are always informed about important updates related to their subscriptions and box purchases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"ss\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/mail-1200x606.webp\")

This mail is sent to the customer when they successfully place an order for a box product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This mail prompts the customer to manage their subscription in case any sub-product is removed from their Custom Box<\/strong> configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNew Filters in Product Listing Menu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Two new filters have been introduced in the Product Listing<\/strong> menu to make product management more efficient and organized.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBox Products Filter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This filter allows the admin to view all products that are part of any Box Order<\/strong> or Subscription Box<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It helps merchants quickly identify and manage products associated with box offerings without having to search manually through the entire product list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"box\"](\"https:\/\/cdnblog.webkul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/boxprdctsfilter-1200x606.webp\")

Webkul Product Subscription App<\/strong> is now compatible with Webkul Wallet Management App<\/a><\/strong>, allowing customers to pay for subscription products directly using their wallet balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEarlier, when a customer purchased a subscription product, card payment was the only available option at checkout<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWith this update, customers can now choose to pay using their wallet<\/strong>, making the subscription payment process more flexible and seamless.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPrerequisite: Install Webkul Wallet Management App<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
App Installation<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Go to the Shopify App Store and search for ‘Webkul Product Subscription App<\/a>.’<\/strong> Click ‘Install,’<\/strong> choose a plan, and complete the payment. Once the payment is processed, your app will be ready to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Select a plan that best fits your business needs. For more details about the plans, visit the Shopify App Store<\/strong> and search for ‘Webkul Product Subscription App<\/a>.’<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Once payment is approved, the dashboard will show total membership details for the last six months, including active, paused, canceled, and expired memberships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To add a product for a subscription, click on ‘Products,’ then click on ‘Add Product.’ After that, select your product from the dropdown list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To add a subscription and set rules for a product, click the ‘View’ button on the ‘Store Products’ page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Plan Name:<\/strong> Here, enter your subscription plan name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Discount on Subscription Products:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Instant Delivery:<\/strong> Instant delivery means receiving a product immediately or very shortly after placing an order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The delivery cycle will be scheduled according to the date the customer subscribes. Specific Delivery:<\/strong> Specific delivery means receiving a product at a designated time or place of your choosing. The product will be delivered on a specific day or date of the week or month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In specific delivery, you can set a preparation time for the product when creating a subscription plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, if the delivery date is the 7th of each month and the preparation time is 2 days, a subscriber joining after the 7th will receive their first delivery on the 9th of the next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, if deliveries occur every Wednesday with a 2-day preparation time, a subscriber who signs up on or after Wednesday will receive their first delivery the next Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note: The number of days taken by the product to be prepared or manufactured is known as the preparation days of the product.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Maximum Delivery Count: The admin determines the maximum number of deliveries allowed per subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Minimum Delivery Count:<\/strong> It is the minimum duration for which you must deliver orders under a subscription before you can terminate it.Note: The minimum delivery count must be 2 or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Choose Delivery Day:<\/strong> When you select a ‘Specific’ delivery type with a ‘weekly’ subscription, choose the day of the week to deliver the ordered product to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Choose Delivery Date:<\/strong> When you select ‘Specific’ delivery type with a ‘monthly’ subscription, choose the exact date of the month for delivering the ordered product to the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To enable or disable the configuration, go to the Shopify backend, access the Webkul Product Subscription App, and navigate to Home Page > Configuration > General Settings.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Retry a failed payment:<\/strong> Enable this option, if you want to allow your customers to retry payment if failed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can choose how you want to proceed with the subscription when payment has failed or declined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Skip Delivery:<\/strong> Enable this option if you want to allow customers to skip their delivery date or day. Note: <\/strong>The next delivery will occur on the same date or day that the admin has scheduled for product or service delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pause subscription:<\/strong> To enable this feature, allow your customers to pause their subscription if they are unable to receive delivery or according to their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Customers can set the number of days to pause their subscription before the next billing date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Renewal Subscription:<\/strong> To enable this feature, allow your customers to renew their subscriptions upon expiration to continuously access their benefits and services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To add the extension, go to theme customization and integrate the extension into your theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To display the options for customers to purchase a subscription, please follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n This feature automatically notifies customers when they activate or suspend their subscription, debit their account, or experience a payment failure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also customize the email templates to fit your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To customize the email template, go to Mail Configuration, choose the template you want to edit, update the email content, and click Save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When a customer subscribes to a product, their details\u2014including subscription ID, plan, product name, upcoming bill, and status\u2014are accessible in the Contracts section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The admin can view client contract details, including the subscription plan name, contract ID, next billing date, billing cycle, delivery cycle, subscription status, customer info, and order history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The admin can remove a subscription plan from any product at any time. To do this, navigate to Webkul Subscription App > Products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Select the product from which you want to remove the subscription, check the variants, and then click ‘Delete Plan.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once a subscription option is added to a product, your customers will see it on the product description page in your store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They can select the subscription option and then proceed to purchase the product, or they can choose the one-time purchase option to buy the product without a subscription. <\/p>\n\n\n\n All the details of the subscription plan, including the plan name and subscription type, will be listed on that page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Purchase with Subscription:<\/strong> Customers can choose the subscription option to purchase the product, which offers either a weekly or monthly subscription plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Weekly Subscription<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Monthly Subscription<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Purchase without subscription<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n One-Time Purchase<\/strong>: If your customers prefer to buy the product without a subscription plan, they can select the one-time purchase option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that choosing this option means they will pay the full original price, and no discounts related to the subscription will apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When customers purchase products on a subscription basis, they can view and manage their subscriptions anytime through their account page on the store. <\/p>\n\n\n\n They will also be able to see the number of products they have subscribed to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your customers want to view their subscribed products, they can easily navigate to the account section of your store. There, they will find a subscription button on their account page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After clicking it, they will see all their subscribed products, and by clicking the ‘view’ button, they can access the details for each product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They can manage their subscriptions on a product-by-product basis and view full details for each subscribed product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This includes subscription contract details such as the subscription status, plan name, next billing date, completed orders, delivery cycle, and billing cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Customers can manage their subscriptions and can cancel, pause, or skip them as needed. They also have the ability to check their subscription order history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If a payment fails due to an error or incorrect payment details, customers can update their payment information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To do so, they should visit the account section of the store, where they\u2019ll find an option to change the payment method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Clicking this option will display their current card details. Once they select their card or payment details, a link to update their payment method will be sent to their registered email address. <\/p>\n\n\n\n They can then follow the link to update their payment information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Webkul Product Subscription App enables businesses to offer recurring subscriptions for products or services, with flexible delivery options and features for managing subscriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Such as payment retries and email customizations. It integrates with Shopify to accommodate various business needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A new and powerful feature has been introduced in the app \u2014 Box Order<\/strong> and Subscription Box<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Box Order<\/strong> feature enables the merchant to create a ready-made box containing multiple products and offer it as a single purchasable item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Subscription Box<\/strong> feature works on a recurring model, allowing customers to subscribe to these boxes for a specific duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are three types of subscription boxes available:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In a Standard Box, the merchant fixes the products, and the customer cannot change them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Custom Box lets the merchant add multiple products and set a minimum number of items that customers must select for the subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Example:<\/strong> Note:<\/strong> The Surprise Box<\/strong> is designed to offer a fun and engaging experience. Each box includes a short hint-based description that gives a slight idea about the theme or nature of the products, but the actual items remain a surprise until delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rewards or surprise items are always picked randomly from the set of products added by the merchant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While creating a box, if the merchant wants to add a new subscription plan that is not already available among the existing options, they can easily do so directly from the same interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Simply type any plan name of your choice in the plan field \u2014 once entered, a new \u201cAdd Plan\u201d<\/strong> button will appear automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the buyer\u2019s profile page, under the Subscriptions<\/strong> section, two new tabs have been introduced to provide better clarity and organization of box-related orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This section displays all the boxes purchased by customers \u2014 whether through a one-time purchase<\/strong> or an active subscription<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It helps buyers easily track all their box orders in one place, regardless of the purchase type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This section lists all the subscribed box orders<\/strong> that are part of an active subscription plan. Customers can view details of their ongoing subscriptions and manage them directly from here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Two new configuration settings have been added under the General Configuration<\/strong> section to provide better control over how subscriptions behave when sub-products are unavailable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Enable this option to automatically cancel existing subscriptions linked to a box product if any of its sub-products go out of stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note:<\/strong> By default, the subscription will continue even if a sub-product is unavailable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Enable this option to automatically cancel existing subscriptions associated with a box product if any sub-product goes out of stock or is removed from the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note:<\/strong> By default, the subscription will be put on hold<\/strong> in such cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Several new mail configurations have been introduced to enhance communication between the store and customers regarding Box Orders<\/strong> and Subscription Boxes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This mail is sent to the customer when they successfully place an order for a box product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This mail is triggered when a customer\u2019s subscription box is cancelled, typically due to one or more sub-products being out of stock or removed from the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This mail informs the customer that a sub-product within their subscribed box is currently out of stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This mail is sent when the subscribed box product itself has been removed from the store, ensuring customers are aware of product availability changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This mail prompts the customer to manage their subscription in case any sub-product is removed from their Custom Box<\/strong> configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Two new filters have been introduced in the Product Listing<\/strong> menu to make product management more efficient and organized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This filter allows the admin to view all products that are part of any Box Order<\/strong> or Subscription Box<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A new Subscription Status<\/strong> filter has also been added, providing the option to sort products based on their subscription activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Webkul Product Subscription App<\/strong> is now compatible with Webkul Wallet Management App<\/a><\/strong>, allowing customers to pay for subscription products directly using their wallet balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Earlier, when a customer purchased a subscription product, card payment was the only available option at checkout<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With this update, customers can now choose to pay using their wallet<\/strong>, making the subscription payment process more flexible and seamless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prerequisite: Install Webkul Wallet Management App<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nPricing<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBox Order and Subscription Box Feature<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
This functionality allows merchants to create pre-defined product boxes and offer them directly to customers, either as a one-time purchase or as a recurring subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBox Order<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
This allows customers to buy a complete curated set of products at once without having to add each product individually.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSubscription Box<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Customers can then choose their preferred products from the available list and subscribe accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Once the subscription starts, before the next delivery date, either the customer or the admin can re-customize<\/strong> the box if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n3. Surprise Box<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Products in this box are selected randomly, creating a mystery or gifting element for the customer.
